Popis: | Hereditary leiomyomatosis renal cell carcinoma (HLRCC) is known as a rare autosomal dominant disease, which is related to mutation of fumarate hydratase (FH) gene. To date, no effective treatments have been found to prevent HLRCC. We present a case of a young male who experienced multiple metastases and been diagnosed HLRCC after the operation of radical nephrectomy for 10 months. This case remains us that early screening and surveillance are recommended to people who have a family history or at risk of HLRCC, surgical and palliative therapy still play an important role in clinical treatment in the meantime. |
